My Little Georgia Rose

Travis Tritt & Bill Monroe

Album: Big Mon The Songs of Bill Monroe



Now come and listen to my story

Story that I know is true

'Bout a rose that blooms in Georgia

With hair of gold and a heart so true.



Chorus:

Way down in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Way down where the tall pines grow

There's my sweetheart of the mountain

She's my little Georgia rose.



--- Instrumental ---



Her mother left her with another

A carefree life she had planned

Maybe now she's a lady

One her mother could not stand.



Chorus:

Way down in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Way down where the tall pines grow

There's my sweetheart of the mountain

She's my little Georgia rose.



--- Instrumental ---



We often sang old songs together

I watched her do her little part

She'd smile at me and I would tell her

That she was my own sweetheart.



Chorus:

Way down in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Way down where the tall pines grow

There's my sweetheart of the mountain

She's my little Georgia rose.



--- Instrumental ---



Chorus:

Way down in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Way down where the tall pines grow

There's my sweetheart of the mountain

She's my little Georgia rose...
